Note that the System Clock Prescaler can be used to implement run-time changes of the internal
clock frequency while still ensuring stable operation. Refer to “System Clock Prescaler” on page

7.5 High Frequency PLL Clock - PLLCLK
There is an internal PLL that provides nominally 64 MHz clock rate locked to the RC Oscillator
for the use of the Peripheral Timer/Counter1 and for the system clock source. When selected as
a system clock source, by programming the CKSEL fuses to ‘0001’, it is divided by four like
shown in Table 7-4. When this clock source is selected, start-up times are determined by the
SUT fuses as shown in Table 7-5. See also “PCK Clocking System” on page 26.
